Default Free sailplane want ads page on Facebook

Steve,

Thanks for posting and I hope it works. Up to nearly 10,000 views in the first week it so and 175 likes. Both of those numbers should steadily rise in the weeks and months to come.

I think a seller should be welcomed to post his ad anywhere and everywhere. Facebook is something that makes sense as do all the other social media sites. I want our sport to grow and the community to be informed and in better contact. Facebook and the social media tools will certainly help accomplish these objectives in many ways.

The US Jr team just started a Facebook group and many soaring clubs, contests, etc are putting Facebook pages together, etc. these pages are very active and popular. Its happening now and accelerating every day. In a year it will be standard operating procedure in the US soaring world and we will be far better informed and connected because of it.

Good luck selling!
